    pic 2 and 3 I would just throw in with copper bearing...it's not worth the time for me to cut it open with a cutting disk and get copper (ESPECIALLY with prices what they are)....the wire as all the same except some yard will pay a bit more for the light guage cord that plug into the wall (they all generally have a separate grade for the heavier gauge power cables). The actual motors (you can tell because they will have a part that spins) goes in electric motors....if you don't have someone that buys computer fans for instance, you can cut the part with the blades off the frame and smack off the blades quickly and there is a small motor...I have someon that buys fans complete, so I just snip the wire and throw them in the big container and take them when it gets full....they aren't worth much.



    I specialize in ewaste...all those items, cases etc are almost nuisances because of the low payout rates...the boards, ram cpu etc is where the money still is.
